Hi

I need to replace my kitchen taps. Ordinarily I would turn of the main house stopcock and drain the system - then fit the new taps

However we have just had a "mega-flow" installed. If I do as described above will there be any issues when refilling the system ? i.e.airlocks etc ?

Thank you
 
it's mains pressure so as Tamz said, you'll be fine. You only get air locks on gravity systems
